Mosamia Art

Projects

Finished Mosamia Art installations, photographed where they were installed.

Every project here begins as an image and ends as a wall. Each one is documented the same way: the mosaic simulation approved before production, a close-up of that simulation at tessera scale, and a photograph of the finished work in place. The simulations are labelled as simulations wherever they appear — only a photograph is ever presented as finished work.

The finished mosaic photographed in place: the portrait panel mounted on a brushed metal backing in a lobby, individual tesserae catching the light unevenly across the face, the polished stone floor below holding a soft reflection.

01

Atatürk Portrait

155 cm × 185 cm (61 in × 72.8 in)

A three-quarter portrait rebuilt at wall scale in 1 cm × 1 cm natural stone tesserae, then photographed where it hangs.

Project details

The full artwork as a mosaic simulation: a three-quarter portrait of Atatürk against a black ground, the face built from fine cream, rose and grey tesserae, with heavy shadow across the brow and a pale jacket and collar at the lower left.
Mosaic simulation
Close view of the simulation, resolved into separate square stone tesserae — rose, apricot and cream marbles across the cheek, each piece carrying its own veining, dropping through deep red to a row of near-black pieces along the bottom edge.
Simulation close-up
The finished mosaic photographed in a stone showroom: the eye panel standing free on low metal feet, its edge and fixings visible, with marble slabs, a round stone table and a veined grey plinth around it.

02

Atatürk Eye Study

280 cm × 185 cm (110.2 in × 72.8 in)

A single eye and brow, taken to 280 cm × 185 cm — a study in how far a photograph can be enlarged before the stone takes over from the picture.

Project details

The full artwork as a mosaic simulation: a single eye and brow filling a wide panel, drawn in fine rust and sepia tesserae over a warm cream ground, the lashes and brow hairs rendered as individual strokes and the iris a cool grey-blue.
Mosaic simulation
Close view of the simulation, resolved into separate square stone tesserae — rose, burgundy, tan and grey marbles set on a regular grid, each piece a distinct cut of stone with its own veining, a few black pieces scattered through.
Simulation close-up
The finished mosaic photographed in place: the leopard panel hung in a dark frame on an interior wall, washed by two ceiling downlights that rake across the surface so the gold tesserae flare and the black ground stays deep.

03

Leopard in the Thicket

310 cm × 375 cm (122 in × 147.6 in)

A leopard at 310 cm × 375 cm, built from cream, ochre and rust tesserae against a field of near-black stone.

Project details

The full artwork as a mosaic simulation: a leopard's face fills the square panel, amber and black rosettes across the brow and cheeks, both eyes catching the light, pale whiskers cutting across the dark foliage that closes in around it.
Mosaic simulation
Close view of the same simulation, resolved into separate square stone tesserae — cream, ochre and rust marbles stepping the muzzle and the pale whisker pads into blocks against a field of near-black pieces.
Simulation close-up
The finished mosaic photographed in place: the head of Venus laid across a tall curved wall in a stone showroom, the tesserae following the flow of her hair and throwing scattered gold glints under two track spotlights, an engraved travertine panel to the right.

05

The Birth of Venus

530 cm × 345 cm (208.7 in × 135.8 in)

The head of Botticelli's Venus at 530 cm × 345 cm, laid across a curved showroom wall — the largest piece documented on this site.

Project details

Close view of the mosaic simulation, resolved into separate square stone tesserae — the eye and brow of Venus stepped into blocks of cream, apricot and rose marble, the lash line dropping through black and deep red pieces.
Simulation close-up

From the atelier

Finished panels filmed in the workshop and the showroom — before they are crated, and before a wall is chosen.

Start with your own image

Send a photograph, a painting or a drawing. You will see a mosaic simulation, and a close-up of how the image resolves into 1 cm tesserae, before anything is cut.
